The apartment is great and very well located. It's about 10 blocks away from the train and the area where there are a lot of restaurants and shops. I arrived very late, and the uber driver took me to the wrong location. I think there is an issue with maps. The host anticipated it and sent me the exact location, but the driver still screwed up. Luckily it was only about 12 blocks away, so I walked. It gave me the chance to see where the train station was and get an idea about the neighborhood. The area is very busy and isn't "fancy". Be prepared to see some bagged trash (before trash day) and a ton of street vendors. I arrived after midnight and most restaurants were closed. I was happy to find out that there is a Seven Eleven two blocks away and plenty of street food folks serving dinner pretty late. I got an amazing bowl of. Noodle soup for about $1. It did give me a bit of a stomach issue the next day, but I don't think it had anything to do with cleanliness. I figured it takes a couple of days to adjust to food, water and other things in another country. The apartment itself is very well finished, but it's located in an old apartment building in the back of what seemed at first as a creepy alley. Please don't be alarmed, it's very safe. There are plenary of tourists staying in the area. Just be prepared for a bit of a "real life" experience. That's why we rent through this app, right? The host was very timely with responding to my messages and was very helpful. Upon arrival, I was greeted by her staff (who was already asleep), but she welcomed me and led me to my studio. She didn't speak much English, but called the host right away. So if you have any questions, you would probably get answers easily. All in all, the studio was cute, but the rest of the building is old and is probably occupied by the working class locals. It is set back from the street, so you don't have to deal with the noise. Oh! And coffee.... there are a few coffee shops in the area. There is one two blocks away, across the street, but their espresso machine was broken. I opted for a Thai coffee my first morning. It was okay. Don't eat there - the food isn't great. There is another one on your side of the street, and it's amazing. Just come out of the alley, take a right, walk about 3-4 blocks and you'll see it. I think it's adjacent to a car sales place or a body shop of some sort. I had their americano and they did it right. Couple of mistakes I made: I totally screwed up the dates when flying from the US and booked it a day early. I lost a day, but it was...
